lyrics

Take it easy now my boy
The bright world is out there waiting
Long moments to enjoy
Is all that we can wish for

But I can’t always be there to pick you up
I won’t always be with you to show you my love
We only get so long but it’ll never stop

Take it easy now my girl
You’re a wonder in the making
This life is but a whirl
A ride that we are taking

Great fortune brought me here so I could pay you on
And sit with you a while as the ride rolls on
We only get so long but it’ll never stop

Take it easy now my love
Our troubles are not hard ones
I’ll kneel down next to you
To tend our little garden

When the time it comes around for us to reap the crop
Look down into the soil and new shoots come up
We only get so long but it’ll never stop

I have this on vinyl and, without exception, if I play it when friends come over someone stops mid conversation and asks "Who IS this?" Very lovely. Melissa
